Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on exploring the intricate molecular mechanisms and regulatory pathways involved in chronic kidney disease (CKD). It gathers cutting-edge research that unveils new insights into the pathophysiology of CKD, emphasizing the role of molecular alterations in disease progression. The contributions cover a wide range of topics, including the identification of novel biomarkers, the role of genetic and epigenetic factors, and the impact of metabolic and inflammatory pathways in CKD. Significant attention is given to understanding how these molecular changes translate into clinical manifestations, thereby enhancing the potential for targeted therapeutic interventions. This Special Issue also highlights advances in diagnostic techniques, offering a more precise understanding of molecular changes in CKD. Overall, this Special Issue aims to gain a deeper understanding of CKD at a molecular level, paving the way for improved treatment strategies and patient outcomes.
Kind regards,
Prof. Dr. Marijn Speeckaert
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
